2 Esdras 4:13 Context
11How should thy vessel then bee able to comprehend the way of the highest, and the world being now outwardly corrupted, to vnderstand the corruption that is euident in my sight? 12Then said I vnto him, It were better that we were not at all, then that we should liue still in wickednesse, and to suffer, and not to know wherefore. 13He answered me and said, I went into a forest into a plaine, and the trees tooke counsell, 14And said, Come, let vs goe and make warre against the Sea, that it may depart away before vs, and that we may make vs more woods. 15The floods of the Sea also in like maner tooke counsell, and said, Come, let vs goe vp and subdue the woods of the plaine, that there also we may make vs another countrey.
